stable hinge
#

where do I get the relic weapon for DRK?

remote lintel
#

the lvl 80 one?

stable hinge
#

Isnt it the same one sidurgu has and you have to upgrade it to different forms?

#

or am I wrong

remote lintel
#

that's the anima one

#

from HW

stable hinge
#

I'd like to know the lv80 one as well

#

since im 73 atm

remote lintel
#

for the lvl 80 one you have to do the return to ivalice quests in kugane

twilit arch
#

the initial unlock for anima one is in idyllshire called "an unexpected proposal"

stable hinge
#

Thanks

bright onyx
#

what is best way to lvl fisher, is that thru restoration or levequests? 🙂

twilit arch
#

ocean fishing every 2hrs and then either do levequests or restoration.

#

leve quests are going to be quicker than restoration since you can just buy the fish to turn in

bright onyx
#

ohh okay thanks ❤️

deft quiver
#

but hq fish if possible

#

it'll double the xp you get as well

bright onyx
#

yea for double exp?

deft quiver
#

yup

bright onyx
#

okii thank you c:

deft quiver
#

i got 15 levels yesterday within 30 mins doing levequests

#

from 33-35 all the way to 50

#

i dont have dlc yet, so im stuck there

bright onyx
#

oooh thats chill

deft quiver
#

but leveling is easy with levequests for fisher

bright onyx
#

ty 🙂

deft quiver
clever cave
#

Just know you have allowance for leves

bright onyx
#

yea, but have max 100 atm, so atleast there is 100 to be used

clever cave
#

Ez max level then

bright onyx
#

nice 😄

clever cave
#

Just need the funds to support if youre gonna buy your way there

deft quiver
#

do max level levequests with fisher when possible

#

it'll be way faster

#

so if youre lvl 30 fisher dont do level 20 leves

bright onyx
#

okii, thanks 🙂 i just do random lvl 30 leve quests or from a main city?

deft quiver
#

i would check market before accepting leves as well, because i needed sea pickles yesterday, and they were only selling in bulk for 30k gil when i only needed 3

#

i was just doing any level 30 leve

#

main city only really have low level leves

#

afaik

bright onyx
#

ohh i see, ill keep an eye out for that, i see thanks 🙂

pulsar thunder
#

what's a recruitment code?

deft quiver
#

Yeah have fun maxing fisherman out

clever cave
bright onyx
#

thank you mada!

remote lintel
#

@pulsar thunder a code that gives rewards to people who give or use them

pulsar thunder
#

oh

halcyon sleet
#

@flat carbon For what it's worth I made a set of alternate hotbars when I was leveling BLM because I like my primary spells to be 1-4 without any modifiers and your primary skills on BLM change drastically. Got rid of them all because I stopped doing lower level content on BLM.

pulsar thunder
#

@remote lintel the time card are digital codes they send right away?

remote lintel
#

if you bought it from the SE website they should

pulsar thunder
#

i don't buy it, xd may ask friend if he could do it for me, because that's the only problem i have with this game, the subscription fee being only available through that page.

proven bay
#

Do your retainers have dialects depending on which city state you hire them in?

pulsar thunder
#

wish they had something with playstation to pay it through psn

remote lintel
#

@proven bay no

#

why don't you buy pan cards

#

psn

pulsar thunder
#

i don't live in US

#

friend send me codes and then i redeem them

remote lintel
#

does PlayStation not sell psn cards outside of the US

pulsar thunder
#

psn cards for my account only works from the US since it's a US account

#

and not in my country, my country economy is horrible so we don't earn $ here

#

that's why i never got this game to begin with because of the subscription thing

#

being it only available through their page

remote lintel
#

why make a US account if you're not in the US then

pulsar thunder
#

because i share account with friend so i can play his games

#

on my console

#

and if i get psn card from there, it'll be easier too

latent prism
#

are there any crafters that are better at framing scrips than others?

#

i remember seeing someone say weaver is crap

pulsar thunder
#

problem with FF14 is their subscription only being available through that Mog page which is a reason why lot of my friends never got into it

raven sage
#

alc is the easiest if you get tinctures for the daily

faint flare
#

The sub price currency is converted to your region price

#

You dont have to pay in dollars

pulsar thunder
#

not here

#

Venezuela is a fucked country

#

you need to live here to understand it xD

remote lintel
#

I'm pretty sure if you're on steam it will convert the price

pulsar thunder
#

nope

#

it stays in $

hoary storm
#

Dont they have a regional price for venezuela?

pulsar thunder
#

nope

#

they never will because the economy here, is fucked up

#

like..really fucked up, it's the country with most inflation i believe so yeah

#

and i can tell about Steam because i have my country and the currency shows and will always be shown in US currency

leaden ginkgo
#

This is new.... can i only do one a day?

#

Or can i do both a day?

remote lintel
#

yes

#

both roulettes

#

once a day

junior yacht
#

you can do them as many times as you want

leaden ginkgo
#

Ooooooo

#

Ye but for more xp

junior yacht
#

the top row of rewards are once daily though

remote lintel
#

the big exp is once a day

leaden ginkgo
#

Ye ok just making sure

#

Thats cool!

#

Also

#

Once im 60

#

Where do i go for dancer?

junior yacht
#

Limsa

remote lintel
#

limsa

leaden ginkgo
#

Ok thx

true citrus
#

Few questions, do ultimate raids take two of the same tank? Is there a reason why gunbreaker is on top for all of the logs? Does it matter what class you play?

faint flare
#

No

remote lintel
#

I can tell you it doesn't matter the class you play

faint flare
#

Dup jobs hurt ALOT in ultimate

#

Due to lb generation

true citrus
#

So it would be wise for me to know a second tank job

left cedar
#

Can I disable reshade somehow without uninstalling it?

remote lintel
#

turn off the reshade settings?

left cedar
#

How?

remote lintel
#

same way you turned them on I assume

twilit arch
#

shift+f3 is default to toggle the effects

#

unless you've changed that

left cedar
#

That turns off the effects

#

But the idea is to make steam overlay work

#

Which it doesn't if reshade is on

gritty oracle
#

If I have a weekly quest completed, but haven't turned it in by the time of weekly reset, will I be able to turn it in and pick the same one up tomorrow?

twilit arch
#

hm not finding anyway to disable reshade without uninstalling

#

yes, vie

left cedar
#

Well, that's frustrating

gritty oracle
#

also, what does the great serpent of ronka questline unlock?

#

it's blue

shrewd owl
#

new pet

twilit arch
#

its required for the qitari beast tribe

faint flare
#

Its part of the qitiri beast tribe

shrewd owl
#

also that

gritty oracle
#

ah

remote lintel
#

are all Alexander savage raids unsoloable

twilit arch
#

there are some that are soloable

remote lintel
#

burden of the son?

twilit arch
#

a1s and a2s have videos

#

A3s as well

#

iirc a4s is a bit out of reach

faint flare
#

Few others as well, mr happy did a few

twilit arch
#

but if you're going to try, its probably best to do it as pld

#

since you can cheese quite a bit with hallowed and clemency

remote lintel
#

so I can't really solo a8s

#

damn

gritty oracle
#

Were you on Crystal, I would have offered my assistance.

remote lintel
#

I appreciate the thought

frozen karma
#

why is my receiving ping so high, anywhere from 700 to over 2000, but when I ping the server in CMD or resmon it shows a ping of below 50?

faint flare
#

Cause that isn't ping

rigid granite
#

What's the 56 man raid called

faint flare
#

Baldesion arsenal

rigid granite
#

Ok

remote lintel
#

isn't that raid like near impossible

faint flare
#

No

#

Like bit higher than extreme

#

Main thing that makes it hard is limited raises

remote lintel
#

oh

#

that's rough

faint flare
#

But mechanics are that bad

#

Aren't

strong sphinx
#

what's actually the point of extreme trials? just for fun?

faint flare
#

Gear

#

And mounts

strong sphinx
#

do they also have weekly resets?

remote lintel
#

not the old ones

twilit arch
#

no

#

extremes never have weekly lockouts

faint flare
#

Extreme drop weapons, ||Innocence|| and Memoroa EX drop accessories and armour respectively instead of weapons

strong sphinx
#

im currently ilvl 453, should i do them to get higher ilvl? i guess shb extremes then?

faint flare
#

They're a helpful stepping stone to get a better weapon for savage before relics were a thing

strong sphinx
#

aahh gotcha

onyx kiln
#

should i keep the artisan stuff that adds a little extra craftmanship and CP but has a little less control?

faint flare
#

CP is more or less king

#

As it lets you actually use the skills that makes use of your stats

#

Without CP you cant use your good skills

crimson wind
#

What's the easiest tier so far?

remote lintel
#

of all the hard ones?

crimson wind
#

ye

remote lintel
#

prob ex

crimson wind
#

no I mean

#

like

#

savage tiers

tardy lake
#

Just tanked my first duty and its overwhelming asf. Will that overwhelming feeling ever go away?

crimson wind
#

Alphascape, Sigma, etc

remote lintel
#

the lowest level one?

#

@tardy lake how was it overwhelming

crimson wind
#

No just the easiest in difficulty when they were on content

twilit arch
#

I assume you're talking about when they were current, yes?

#

hm i think a lot of people considered deltascape pretty easy on release

quiet magnet
#

so just did my first dungeon raid thing am confused by the loot system read up on it a bit but confused about "gree" and "need"

#

greed

twilit arch
#

@raw solstice opinions on the easiest tier on release?

faint flare
#

Need beats greed

#

You can only need if its for your job

obsidian patio
#

@tardy lake yeah you’ll slowly get the hang of stuff as you keep trying

raw solstice
#

deltascape probably?

crimson wind
#

any reasoning to that?

quiet magnet
#

like if a player in a class needs better armor its a need therefore if they choose "need" first the person gets it since they get priority

faint flare
#

Pressing needs roles the dice

remote lintel
#

yes if no one else chooses need

faint flare
#

Whoever has the highest need roll wins

twilit arch
#

You can only roll need on gear you can personally equip on that job. So if no one presses need, goes to whomever has the highest greed roll

crimson wind
#

only people who can equip it and don't have better gear cab roll need

twilit arch
#

if two people can use the same piece of gear and both roll need, it will be between those two and no one else

proud willow
#

no, it doesn't have anything to do with your current gear

#

it's purely based on your class

quiet magnet
#

So only use need if you ACTUALLY need the gear or else yur being a greedy asshole?

twilit arch
#

no

faint flare
#

No

raw solstice
#

O1S was legit a one pull -> clear for world first. 2s was a dummy fight, easily cleared from fresh in like half an instance. 3s had a bit more as far as interesting mechanics but had quite a lot of time on enrage and mechanics had straightforward resolution. There's really not much for O4S overall, exdeath was straightforward and quick (with a lot that was similar to normal). Neo had most of the phase just repeat instead of adding anything new, and had a lot of time on enrage to kill it

twilit arch
#

again, you can use need so long as you are able to equip the piece of gear. I.e if you're a tank and a piece of tank gear drops, you will be able to roll need on it

proud willow
#

realistically, people aren't going to care that much about gear dropped from dungeons.

twilit arch
#

most people aren't going to call out on you rolling need for gear, even if you have better gear

proud willow
#

Anything that's a big deal (like a minion or glamour gear) will allow everyone to roll Need

obsidian patio
#

Need also still rolls a dice, as multiple people can roll need if they’re able to

crimson wind
#

And what would you consider the hardest tier?

#

personally i would assume an Alexander tier

#

because door bosses are a thing

faint flare
#

Probably gordias

raw solstice
#

gordias but that's a bit cheating since it was gear gated and player skill on average wasn't as high

twilit arch
#

gordias, the static killer

raw solstice
#

for just complexity and difficulty by itself I'd probably put midas over gordias

crimson wind
#

and how easy would you say this tier is to get into?

twilit arch
#

tbh though wasn't gordias namely pepsi man being the issue?

raw solstice
#

A3S was tight and finnicky. But after a bit of gear it got quite a bit easier

faint flare
#

Nisi was also abit ass

#

If I recall

raw solstice
#

well I mean you just used sac strat with nisi so it's whatever

#

this tier is pretty easygoing to get into

crimson wind
#

Would assume savages are fairly easy because guides and all that but execution is a bitch

remote lintel
#

uh

crimson wind
#

probably shouldn't go in with thta mentality

remote lintel
#

you also have to memorize the moves

#

I'm assuming you haven't gotten to Eden yet

crimson wind
#

nah I've done Eden normal

remote lintel
#

Eden savage

crimson wind
#

no

#

I mean I've got my ex clears this tier, not that they're hard

remote lintel
#

there are no attack telegraphs

lilac mulch
#

which fairy do i use when --> scholar

indigo orbit
#

They’re the same

faint flare
#

Whatever looks better

indigo orbit
#

They kinda wiped Selene’s abilities because I don’t think anyone really used them

faint flare
#

Only fey wind prepull and thats it

indigo orbit
#

And they got rid of most attack speed buffs it seems like

faint flare
#

Aside from the melee ones

indigo orbit
#

GL and Huton are kinda it

#

Yeah

lilac mulch
faint flare
#

You need to keep the npcs alive

#

So you do need to keep an eye on them

sand flame
#

Healing

#

Your main job

faint flare
#

And heal them when they need it

sand flame
#

You should dps though

#

Just don’t overdo it

tawdry blade
#

question about dyes in this game, so if I dye my gear with my main stats and then glamour that gear with something else, do i lose the dye on my main stat gear

lilac mulch
#

what are the good heals lol sorry just went from summoner over and meh pretty clueless

sand flame
#

Yea

#

You do

faint flare
#

Excog, lustrates, indom

#

Whispering dawn

sand flame
#

If you glamour something it takes into account what the glamour was

tawdry blade
#

oh ok darn thought i wouldnt lose the dye

sand flame
#

You can dye the glam tho

tawdry blade
#

yeah i know, i just alternate between the two though so i was just wondering

sand flame
#

Do you use the glamour closet?

chilly birch
uncut saffron
#

question guys, has anyone had their account suspended for using ACT? I just came back from a long break and played for about a week and out of nowhere today I see my account was suspended

faint flare
#

If you use it for harassment

uncut saffron
#

thats the only thing I could possibly think of being the reason

faint flare
#

Yes you will

uncut saffron
#

I never mention it to anyone

clever cave
#

They gave u no reason for suspension?

forest laurel
#

then no you won't

#

ACT is fine, but if you use it to harass ppl then yes you will get beaned

tawdry blade
#

no i dont @sand flame

uncut saffron
#

no you dont get a reason, I sent in a ticket about it but Im sure it wont be a quick response, and the phone line is down for a holiday, dunno wtf holiday it is though

#

will I lose my house because of this?

twilit arch
#

you should've received an email

faint flare
#

The holiday is corona

uncut saffron
#

yea thats what I thought >.< ffs

forest laurel
#

I mean it IS possible to use ACT and still call someone out for dps, you just gotta be careful

twilit arch
#

Auto demolish is also turned off due to covid

faint flare
#

Housing demolishion is turned off so you wont lose it

uncut saffron
#

thank god, Id immediately quit if I lost it

sand flame
#

Go into an innroom and you can put whatever you wanna glamour into that closet @tawdry blade

#

You can also save templates for outfits you like

#

And dye them within those templates and they will stay that color or dye it within the closet and it will be that way no matter what

uncut saffron
#

and no I didnt get an email about it, last email I have from square is just the payment notification

clever cave
#

U sure ure even suspended?

tawdry blade
#

oh yeah, my main issue is that my base gear is dyed too and when i glamour over it, it removes the dye on the base even after using a glamour dispeller

#

I'll just stick with my base gear if thats the case

#

ty for the help though

uncut saffron
#

for glam closet you can also link your gear sets to one of the glam sets so that it updates automatically when you change it, can also assign the same glam plate to multiple gear sets

#

@clever cave Im absolutely positive, cant log into the game and on mog station it says account suspended

rich bay
#

@uncut saffron

It is possible there is a payment problem, contact SE support.

And yes, there is a prime example of a playee banned for ACT, but that one used it to harass a player too, he got suspended for that behaviour.

clever cave
#

Ic, yea gotta wait for that ticket reply then.. good luck

uncut saffron
#

sigh, hope the review doesnt take ages because of corona >.< thanks for the help

wheat hazel
#

Hey so I just got to Eureka Pagos but how do I unlock Gerolt he wants “the very best Anemos’s got to offer” lol

faint flare
#

Your anemos weapon probably

obsidian patio
#

You need a completed Anemos weapon to upgrade it in pagos

#

Same for the later zones, can’t skip weapon steps

midnight slate
#

Can I do wonderous tail goals unsyched?

twilit arch
#

yes

midnight slate
#

Ah hell yeah

silver ruin
#

is there an overmeld %table listed somewhere?

twilit arch
silver ruin
#

thanks

rich bay
#

@silver ruin

https://ffxivteamcraft.com/gearsets

Can also be used instead of Ariyala, that does the same and is maybe easier to use..

strong sphinx
#

which target dummies are you guys using? or which places to find them? (im lvl 80/msq done/all maps unlocked)

faint flare
#

Summerford farms

#

For the easiest

#

They're kinda literally next to the aetheryte down a ramp

strong sphinx
#

ah yes that one

#

does it matter to practice rota on a low level dummy?

#

if you*

faint flare
#

Nah it doesn't

#

Their defence is basically the same

strong sphinx
#

alrighty

noble ember
#

I level skipped to 70 on my white mage, which auto completes job quests. One of the job quests for level 60 gave out a chest of gear I wanted for transmog purposes

left cedar
#

So I've gotten to the point where my switch pro controller works for other things. I tried it in PSO2, and it works perfectly. But not in FF. I don't understand why.

noble ember
#

Anyway to get that reward or I'm shot

faint flare
#

Buy it for centuro seals

twilit arch
#

you can buy the lvl 60 af with centurio seals in ishgard

faint flare
#

At the forgotten knight

noble ember
#

What are centurion shards / are they farmable?

faint flare
#

Heavensward and stormblood hunt currency

twilit arch
#

centurio seals are hunt currency for heavensward and stormblood hunts

faint flare
#

And yes

twilit arch
#

you can do daily/weekly hunt bills

noble ember
#

Ah ok ty

twilit arch
#

and if you're lucky can catch the A/S ranks that spawn in the open world

#

but that said, you need to unlock the Hunt at your grand company headquarters first

#

to be able to unlock the heavensward and stormblood hunt boards

noble ember
#

I think I did

tulip plover
#

If i get into crafting can i make armor stronger than the gear you get from bosses

faint flare
#

Its on par

#

If its high quality

twilit arch
#

crafted gear is generally on par with normal mode raid gear

#

but its not better than the weekly capped tomestone gear or savage gear

sharp mortar
#

Hey guys im back from a long break, how do I get to into a good friendly Free company?

tulip plover
#

Than whats the point in crafting armor

faint flare
#

Its the easiest gear to get thats not time locked

warped nest
#

On the first 2-3 weeks on a new patch

#

They are the strongest gear available you can get your hands on right away

cedar reef
#

Sometimes it looks better than the raid gear.

twilit arch
#

i wouldn't say they the strongest gear

#

strongest that's not weekly locked perhaps

warped nest
#

Yeah

tulip plover
#

Whats weekly locked

faint flare
#

Good for catch up gear

warped nest
#

Players who prog savage pay big money to get their hands on crafted gears on the first week or so

faint flare
#

Current raids are weekly lockrd

#

So gear is limited

twilit arch
#

crafted gear basically lets you skip having to deal with weekly lockouts/get right into being able to do savage if that's your interest

#

since the only real limit to crafted gear is whether you're geared enough to make it yourself or having the gil to buy it from marketboard

warped nest
#

You are limited to a set amount of reward per week, hence the weekly lock

#

This includes the weekly capped tomestone, and gears from raid that forbid you to roll again until the weekly reset

tulip plover
#

Oh so lets say you want a whole armor set you may not be able to farm it all due to the weekly

#

But with crafting you can get it all

warped nest
#

Yeah

tulip plover
#

And when is the best lvl to start armor crafting

faint flare
#

Whenever you want

warped nest
#

Just take note that crafting itself is highly optional

faint flare
#

Crafting and gathering is basically a different game

warped nest
#

And we generally recommend doing all crafting jobs to save recurring cost in purchasing crafted materials from other crafting jobs

tulip plover
#

So gathering and crafting?

faint flare
#

Yes

tulip plover
#

And how do you lvl crsfting ans gathering classes

warped nest
#

You can choose not to do gathering if you really don't want to, it is just more costly to buy raw materials.

Imo the cost in buying processed materials from crafting jobs you don't have adds up much faster

faint flare
#

You gather stuff
..and you craft things for.xp

#

Primarily xp is from leves and ishgard restoration when you hit 20

dense pier
#

My retainers just hit 50, spent a pretty penny with some vendor gear for them but...

I noticed there are multiple versions of Lv.50 exploration, all of which have different iLvl requirements but the same EXP award. Is it just different items they bring back?

twilit arch
#

yes

tulip plover
#

How do you leave the novice network

#

I cant see my free company text

leaden ginkgo
#

Where can i find the $shop?

little swift
#

!faq mogstation

zinc orbitBOT
little swift
#

cash shop is outside game

#

you can click the little sprout icon in your chat area to leave novice network

#

or you cna open more chat channels

mossy tartan
#

If I change my GC, does my progress on the original one get deleted?

obsidian patio
#

@tulip plover /nastatus off

twilit arch
#

nope, your old GC stuff basically gets frozen

mossy tartan
#

okay, thank you

#

Does the same happen to the 2nd GC if I decide to return to the main one?

twilit arch
#

mhm

mossy tartan
#

Okay

ripe yoke
#

if i was going to ask about some eden savage content, would it be here or in the end game chat?

twilit arch
#

just keep in mind there's 15 day cd and a small gil fee for when you switch gcs

#

if its general question, here is fine. if its about like fight strats, then end game is probably the better option

ripe yoke
#

ok

#

thanks

#

ok, so im new to the eden stuff. first off, im assuming that e6s for example would be the 6th eden raid for savage? is that a correct assumption?

faint flare
#

Yes

ripe yoke
#

ok, and apparently there are phases to each one? i just had a party finder kick me for being a "trap party" whatever that means. because i start discussing a mechanic that "wasnt in phase 2"

tulip plover
#

Where is the chat log

faint flare
#

Yes

#

For 6 explicitly, each boss is considered its own phase

obsidian patio
#

By default your chat log should be in the bottom left of your screen

faint flare
#

So garuda phase, ifirit phase, both boss together phase then raktasha phase

tulip plover
#

Im trying to leave that damn novice network

#

Keeps drowing my free company

#

Drowning

faint flare
#

You can hide the chat in chat filters

#

As well

raw solstice
#

/novicenetwork leave

#

you can also disable your new adventurer status with /nastatus off

#

both would take you out of the novice network

ripe yoke
#

i was just using 6 as an example, because e4s didnt sound right. unless it is? either way, for sepulture. there are phases? how do you distinguish which phase you are getting into? and can you choose where you start in those fights? very confused :/

raw solstice
#

sepultre is E4S

faint flare
#

Sepulchre has phases ues

#

And it is e4s

#

As its the 4th fight

ripe yoke
#

sounded wierd was all lol

raw solstice
#

generally phases are distinguished by major transitions in the fight

faint flare
#

There's 3 main phases, mini titan, big titan then both together. Some consider Car titan and Gauntlet titan mini phases

ripe yoke
#

so i got into a party finder for the big titan bit without realising.

remote lintel
#

do we not have a lfg channel or is it just the recruitment channel

faint flare
#

Yes

ripe yoke
#

what is a "trap party" then?

faint flare
#

Trap party is a bad party

#

In short

ripe yoke
#

it said it was for beginners ;.;

jade quartz
#

A party that claims to be a prog party for x phase but then you never make it to that phase

raw solstice
#

it's basically just like, the party isn't going to make progress, isn't going to be able to do what's listed on the description

remote lintel
#

I meant lfg as in not a static

twilit arch
#

just the recruitment channels

#

They're not specifically for statics

raw solstice
#

usually even newer learning parties recommends reading a bit about the fight ahead of time and have some amount of knowledge. If you went into an E6S party thinking it was E4S, and were talking about E4S stuff

remote lintel
#

they're dead :/

raw solstice
#

that's a bit of a red flag that you don't know what you're talking about

ripe yoke
#

so the guy was just being an ass for saying that in a party listed for practice and beginners? or am i expected to be able to clear?

#

nono

#

ignore the e6s stuff

#

i only use it as a random example

#

because the e4s didnt sound right in my head

raw solstice
#

even if it's for practice/beginners, especially for a fight like that, it's expected to read ahead and know what's going on in the fight

faint flare
#

If thry advertised Phase 2 practice, generally it means people should know how phase 1 (small titan) goes and the strats for it

ripe yoke
#

but i guess me asking about the first phase makes sense to be a red flag. which is fair

tulip plover
#

To lvl crafting and gathering do you have to switch class

faint flare
#

Yes

tulip plover
#

Booo

ripe yoke
#

ohhhh, yeah. that makes sense. so its smooth sailing for the first part and then the 2nd part is where everyone would die and get their real "practice" in?

faint flare
#

Basically

ripe yoke
#

ok, that makes more sense

#

thanks so much 😄

twilit arch
#

yes, crafting and gathering are their own classes

#

its not like wow, where you just open a menu and hit 'craft' or tap a gathering node

#

you actually have gear and skills you make use of

tulip plover
#

How do you switch classes

twilit arch
#

you equip that class's main hand

faint flare
#

Equip their weapon after unlocking the job

#

Alternatively save and use gear sets

#

To swap every piece of gear to whatever you saved the gear set as

tulip plover
#

Where do i go to learn craftong

#

Crafting

twilit arch
#

leatherworker, carpenter are in gridania. armorer, blacksmith, and culinarian are in limsa lominsa. weaver, alchemist and goldsmith are in ul'dah

tulip plover
#

That fuq are there different classes of crafters?

faint flare
#

Yes

twilit arch
#

yes

faint flare
#

And 3 different gatherers

tulip plover
#

:|

#

The fuck

twilit arch
#

as i said

#

they are their own classes

faint flare
#

Like i said, its basically a different game

obsidian patio
#

Their own equipment, skills, and stats.

tulip plover
#

So theres about 40 classes total

obsidian patio
#

Only 27 or so.

#

No one really counts the base game classes before they become their job

tulip plover
#

Whew boy thats a lot of time to sync into classes

#

But to be self seficient is totally worth it

obsidian patio
#

Crafting classes can level up super fast if you’re willing to invest Gil into them

#

Like, 1 to 80 in a day fast if you throw enough Gil

faint flare
#

And self repairs is such a nice QoL thing

tulip plover
#

Well sir i have 9k gil :)

#

Is that enough?

obsidian patio
#

Just add a few more zeroes and maybe!

tulip plover
#

:(

#

Well i better go buy my time card

warped nest
#

If you do more MSQ, complete the weekly challenge logs to the best of your ability, you will build up a sizeable saving to start your crafting/gathering endeavor

#

Don't forget to set certain teleport spot as favorites to halve their cost and use Return over teleport whenever you can

#

This adds up

flat carbon
#

Am I severely hurting myself later by just teleporting everywhere everytime?

remote lintel
#

no

faint flare
#

Not really

#

Story gives you enough

flat carbon
#

Cool, I haven't really needed to buy anything yet so I wasn't sure

warped nest
#

The cost of teleport is somewhat adjusted to match the distant

tulip plover
#

How do you unlock challengez

warped nest
#

I have to be honest, I have no idea if challenge log needs unlocking

tulip plover
#

Cuz when i click on it it says now available

#

Not

faint flare
#

There's a blue quest in limsa upper decks

#

To unlock it

#

Something.like "Up to the Challenge+

remote lintel
#

can you do a8s with like 3 people

#

it's impossible to get 5

warped nest
#

Well, people have soloed it iirc

remote lintel
#

I don't have a paladin

#

nobody wants to do this damn raid

twilit arch
#

not a8s

#

There's a couple of duo videos

#

so i imagine 3 ppl would be fine

warped nest
#

Yeah here's a 2 player guide

remote lintel
#

jeez 7 minutes

dusky echo
#

Also it's not terribly expensive to level DOH fast, if you use the firmament and share the gearset

turbid vale
#

hi guys one question i see quest called role warrior of darkness

#

is real role skill and abilitey or just name

faint flare
#

Just a name of a quest

orchid scarab
#

I'm returner... where or what do you do for fast leveling from 50 to 80?

faint flare
#

Story first and foremost

#

Then refer to this

#

!faq altlvlguide

zinc orbitBOT
orchid scarab
#

I don't see fate runs anymore

faint flare
#

Those arent much of a thing, only really done while waiting on ques

#

Occasionally a fate train in Shadowbringers zones to level up fate shops

orchid scarab
#

ok ty

tulip plover
#

Are all the worlds connected

#

In the na

midnight slate
#

Are dancing wings tradeable?

twilit arch
#

yes

tulip plover
#

Ia becoming a gladiator worth it

#

Is

junior yacht
#

like

deft quiver
#

what are beast tribes

junior yacht
#

what do you mean by "worth it"?

tulip plover
#

Like idk

twilit arch
#

beast tribes are reputations basically

#

you do a set of dailies for them to rank up

#

and they reward various things, like crafting materials, mounts, pets

tulip plover
#

I saw gladiator as one of the guilds ans i was like wtf does this even do

junior yacht
#

baby Paladin

#

are you interested in tanking?

tulip plover
#

Well im going to become a gunbreaker so yea

junior yacht
#

then gladiator might be a good place to start

tulip plover
#

So gladiator is another class?

remote lintel
#

yes

tulip plover
#

Cuz i see no point in having two tanking classes

#

I wanted to make 1 tank one healer and one dps

shrewd owl
#

Just play whatever looks cool to u

tulip plover
#

So when i change classes my armor doenst change back

#

:/

#

Is there a way to fix that

faint flare
#

Use gear sets

shrewd owl
#

Make gearsets for when u switch classes

tulip plover
#

How do you do that

shrewd owl
#

Also hit the recommended gear button if u get new classes so u get instantly dressed

faint flare
#

Character page > press the paper button above the character viewer > press the + on the new window to make a gear set

#

You can then drag the gear set to hotbars for easy swapping

tulip plover
#

Ok i figured it our

#

Out

#

Ty

faint flare
#

Remember to update frequently when you get new gear

#

By pressing the twin arrow buttons

tulip plover
#

Wtf whats the point of all these skills ?!

remote lintel
#

lots of things

tulip plover
#

Well i see where the time sink comes into play

#

Theres so many things to do

#

Honestly i think if you skip these your doing yourself a diservice

shrewd owl
#

What class skills u looking at

tulip plover
#

Hm?

#

Honestly all of them

shrewd owl
#

Im guessing u just went gunbreaker?

tulip plover
#

Well im lvl 27

#

So i got a ways

shrewd owl
#

Oh lol

#

Gunbreakers fun so I hope u enjoy it

tulip plover
#

Im just trying to get into other classes now

remote lintel
#

at lvl 27 you're missing like 90% of your skills

tulip plover
#

Yea ive only been playing for like what a week and some change

#

Now to become a weaver :3

#

So is weaver for glamour?

remote lintel
#

and armor

whole marlin
#

hi, anyone know is eureka fate got stopping time? i had been doing eureka anemos for days, every time there will be a fate in few minutes, but today suddenly 1hour totally no people + no fate

tulip plover
#

So basically you can learn both compat and non combat classes through guilds

remote lintel
#

yes

tulip plover
#

Ok so ima just go through and gather the classes and choose what i want to lvl

#

I guess ima learn thematurg

#

Can you fit all the class skills on two rotations

remote lintel
#

you mean hotbars

tulip plover
#

Yea

#

Like just have 1 and 2

remote lintel
#

if you're on mouse and keyboard no

#

need 3

tulip plover
#

Im on ps4

remote lintel
#

then yes

tulip plover
#

So how many classes do you play?

whole wasp
#

@whole marlin eureka fate is triggeted by mob kills. Kill alot of some mobs and the corresponding fate shoes up. If nobody killing anything, no fates.

leaden ginkgo
#

what lvl do we unlock the first dungeon/raid ?

remote lintel
#

15

#

raids are 50

faint flare
#

About 16 ish for first dungeon via story

remote lintel
#

sastasha is 15

crimson crystal
#

@tulip plover you can play all classes in the game on your one character

lime quarry
#

I just unlocked my chocobo, I'm a white mage, should I have it be a healer as well?

faint flare
#

Its worth considering so you can entirely focus on dps

#

And not really have to spend gcds to heal

crimson crystal

And when you're a dps or tank class, you might appreciate it then

tulip plover
#

Ok where the hell do i get muddy watwe

#

Water

faint flare
#

Mining i believe

lime quarry
#

Thanks 😄

vernal bramble
#

playing the game in controller, is there way to edit the r1 button's switch, wanted to make to switch to hotbar set 2 rather than hotbar set 8

obsidian patio
#

You can edit in hotbar settings what crossbars you can cycle through

#

One for your weapon sheathed, another for when your weapon is out (AKA in combat basically )

tulip plover
#

Wow theres a lot of lvling to be done with these classes

#

Its like mining is used for alchemy and alchemh can be used for something else

#

And they link

obsidian patio
#

Yeah some later recipes can use 3-4 crafting classes for materials

crimson crystal
#

Yep hence why advice I've seen is to level all crafters at once

#

Also, remember that market board is a thing for mats that you don't want to get on your own

tulip plover
#

So can some materials be farmed from bosses

#

Or mobs

crimson crystal
#

Yeah

vernal bramble
#

Oh that's neat. I'll try to fiddle around with it then. Thanks

tulip plover
#

And where can i get lots of money

patent tusk
#

I got a full set of ironworks armor and a weapon so what should I be using my tomestones of poetics for now?

faint flare
#

!faq poetics

zinc orbitBOT
faint flare
#

^

tulip plover
#

So is the crafting weapon the only weapon u use

faint flare
#

You get a off hand later

#

Which is pretty much extra stats. Occasionally "used" for some crafts and visually changes the crafting bench

tulip plover
#

Ok so there is no lvl 70 super hyper ultima weapon pickaxe right?

faint flare
#

Not really. There are some tools that glow

leaden ginkgo
#

is sastasha once a day ?

faint flare
#

No

#

!itemglamour Blessed Galleyking's Frypan

zinc orbitBOT
faint flare
#

There's stuff like thos @tulip plover

#

Which requires crafting a certain amount of unique receipes for that crafter

tulip plover
#

:|

#

And where do you get recipes

proud willow
#

@leaden ginkgo no limit to how many times you can run a dungeon

#

once you have access to the 2nd dungeon, you'll unlock your first roulette

faint flare
#

You get receipes as you level

proud willow
#

those are only once per day (well, you only get the bonus once per day)

faint flare
#

Additional receipes at lv50, 60, 70 and 80 are unlocked by buying and using Master receipe books, typically brought with Scrips which is a special currency crafters and gatherers use

jagged crow
#

Can someone tell me how to get the plague doctor mask or is it story spoilers?

proud willow
#

off the top of my head, I think it drops from the optional dungeon Saint Mocianne's Arborteum

#

also there might be more than one with that model, I'll check

buoyant scroll
#

hey does any one know where the vender is for the hailstorm set? im aware i need Tomestones for it but i have no idea were to trade them for that set

obsidian patio
#

Idyllshire in the big building, middle NPC

jagged crow
#

I looked up that dungeon it doesn't seem to drop from that

buoyant scroll
#

thank you

jagged crow
#

Wait I looked up that hard one

#

I see it

proud willow
#

yup

#

that and Pharos Sirius (Hard)

latent prism
#

is there a specific order to kill each round of e8s adds?

dense pier
#

How come I see guides saying to use Bountiful Yield 2 over King's Yield 2?

little swift
#

!action bountiful yield ii

zinc orbitBOT
#
**Bountiful Yield II** : lvl 68 MIN (100 GP) (0.0 second cooldown)(Instant cast time)

Increases the number of items obtained on your next gathering attempt by one, two, or three. Number determined by your gathering rating.

little swift
#

you can use it on a per gather hit basis

#

could be a GP save

#

depending on the number of node hits you can make

dense pier
#

I know that much

leaden ginkgo
#

where can i see my daily roullete?

little swift
#

hit "u" daron

proud willow
#

Roulettes show up under the first tab, there should be one there once you've unlocked 2 dungeons

leaden ginkgo
#

when do i unlck the 2nd one?

#

Just did sastasah

little swift
#

keep doing msq lvl16 is your next dungeon

leaden ginkgo
#

is there a specific materia i need on the scepter for a relic reborn

little swift
#

yes

#

which job are you doing @leaden ginkgo

leaden ginkgo
#

Blm

little swift
#

savage might 3

#

2 of them

fathom sierra
#

So i just finished the first part of ARR... i dont have shadowbringers yet so any suggestions on what i should do? should i just continue with the main story quests or should i start leveling another charachter since im capped at lvl 50 now ?

proud willow
#

the XP for the post-ARR quests is pretty low, it won't be a waste if you go through with a capped level 50

#

there's a whole lot of side content you can do instead, if you prefer

#

or go ahead and level up more classes

fathom sierra
#

Thanks , i really wanted dark knight but i didnt know i needed the dlc for it lol im getting it this week tho

proud willow
#

if you're looking for something to do to kill time, the Rise and Fall of Gentlemen is a fantastic quest chain

#

and very long

#

starts in Ul'dah

leaden ginkgo
#

any 2 seat mounts that you don’t have to buy off mog?

#

You need a level 50 done with ARR to play DRK anyways @fathom sierra

fathom sierra
#

Thanks alot hit

proud willow
#

There is a 2 seater mount that you get for recruiting several people to the game using a Refer-A-Friend code

fathom sierra
#

so basically just finish through ARR to get drk

proud willow
#

and there's a 4-seater you get from a level 80 raid

leaden ginkgo
#

pretty much

#

It unlocks from the Heavensward hub town

proud willow
#

Right, the first Heavensward quest unlocks access to the city and the quests there (including DRK)

fathom sierra
#

thanks ! another question..... i just set up my xbox controller finally.. i noticed the 4 skills behind the main bar, how do i get to those?

warped nest
#

Either double tap RT

#

Or hold RT then press LT

#

The position of those are off though... They should not be covered

flat carbon
#

When do dailies reset?

#

Like daily roulettes I mean

remote lintel
#

4 hours

proud willow
#

that's correct

flat carbon
#

Cool, just did praetorium for msq roulette and it was pretty sweet xp/poetics

#

Definitely going again tomorrow

hoary storm
#

For NA dailies is in 11 hours

proud willow
#

oh wait

hoary storm
#

4 hours is weeklies

proud willow
#

yeah, what am I thinking

warped nest
#

Weekly is in a few hours

#

Daily is like much later

remote lintel
#

oh right

#

I forget they're on a diff timer for some reason

leaden ginkgo
#

So strange questino

#

Phantasmagoria is primarily for gear and... Crafting items?

remote lintel
#

yes

gloomy ice
#

Yeah. Materials for current crafted sets of all kinds.

leaden ginkgo
#

And, if i am seeing right, you get the upgrade items from coins of Nier?

slate arrow
#

yes

tulip plover
#

When did you guys pick up a second battle class

slate arrow
#

@tulip plover it's never required, I reached level cap first before I looked at other battle classes

tulip plover
#

Ah ok

jade quartz
#

When I felt like it

tulip plover
#

Guess ill wait till im lvl 80

#

Or 70

#

I want to make a monk

#

Ima sucker for fist classea

#

Classes

remote lintel
#

if you want to play it then play it

warped nest
#

There is no limitation to when you swap

leaden ginkgo
#

...From where do you get the Crystarium upgrade items?

#

Savage Eden?

warped nest
#

Yeah

tulip plover
#

Well i think it would be better to just focus on one class especially since im picking up crafting/gathering

warped nest
#

For the time being

#

5.3 will add new ways to get those

remote lintel
#

focusing on one class changes nothing

slate arrow
#

they become "buyable" with the first and second coin from Nier next patch, as well as with Sacks of Nuts

warped nest
#

The answer is "up to you"

#

We are just saying that there is no need to max one before you swap

tulip plover
#

Well that and thr fact that moving between them would prob confuse the shit out of me skill wise

remote lintel
#

I switched classes twice on the way to 80

#

nah it wont

dense pier
#

Okay so

#

How do I know when to increase the "wait" in a macro?

#

I have this macro

#

but I want to make a new one for something else

slate arrow
#

If a skill isn't triggering, that's when you should increase wait

#

unless your latency is especially bad wait.3 should be enough for the majority of your skills

jade quartz
#

In general, touch/synthesis actions which have an animation where you actually work on the craft requires 3 seconds

#

Whereas actions which are just self buffs or like, repair

#

Which all have an animation of you pumping your fist in the air

#

Require only 2 seconds.

dense pier
#

So is this good then?

warped nest
#

I just do wait3 for all of them

#

I don't think it is worth my time remembering what's what

#

But yes, that's fine

jade quartz
#

Yes that’s good

#

I would take the time—you make a macro like this so that you can use it a lot

#

And the lost seconds can add up and get annoying when you know there’s something you could be doing faster.

warped nest
#

With my ping, I think it is fine to just standardize it to 3s

jade quartz
#

Shouldn’t be an issue unless you have ping over 200ms or something

warped nest
#

Lag spike...

#

Oh yeah, @dense pier make sure you have a override macro

#

Just in case ping or lag spike messed up your current macro and you want to manually salvage it

dense pier
#

welp

warped nest
#

Just a simple macro like
/echo stuff and things
Will do

uncut dome
#

What's more efficient for leveling between Aerochem and Antitower?

warped nest
#

Neither

#

You want the Great Gubal Library

uncut dome
#

Oh really

#

Even though it's a 59?

warped nest
#

Lvl 59 dungeon gives more exp than the lvl 60 dungeons

uncut dome
#

Oh ok got it, thanks

warped nest
#

Lvl 50, 60, 70 dungeons were the endgame dungeons of their time

uncut dome
#

Oh got it

#

So they weren't designed for levelling

warped nest
#

Exactly

uncut dome
#

Sweet, thanks!

warped nest
#

Np

btw, that above macro

#

might not be a bad idea to stick whatever the CP restore is into it before great strides, i forget the name

warped nest
#

Trick of Trade

simple shore
#

Yeah that

warped nest
#

There is an s or two in there

#

Tricks of the Trade?

#

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

jade quartz
#

That consumes inner quiet stacks

little swift
#

tricks of the trade is the right skill that restores cp

#

byregots blessing is the consumption

gentle marten
#

Can you redo class quests?

little swift
#

not at this time tako

jade quartz
#

Ah, it requires good quality, that’s right

little swift
#

you can rewatch cutscenes

gentle marten
#

I wanted to do the lvl70 drk duty

warped nest
#

We all do

#

Not right now

#

Eventually NG+ will include the option to redo class quests right?

simple shore
#

Anyway, you stick that in your macro as "poor protection".

long kelp
#

On pre heavensward quests - not looking forward to it!!!!!

#

should i wait until 5.3 lol, and just level different jobs until

fringe falcon
#

Hello! Does anybody have a guide for iLvl460 gear and forward. I'm a returner from 5.0 and don't know where to start

marble drift
#

are you looking to get TO 460

#

or past?

fringe falcon
#

To 460 and past :)

#

I don't actually know if i need one for the other

marble drift
#

well to get to 460 its all phanta tomestones

#

buy yourself a set of deepshadow gear from eulmore with those. bam 460

#

OR get to the minimum required item level for Eden's Verse normal

#

and tackle that

#

through the duty finder of course.

remote lintel
#

470 - augmented deepshadow
480 - edencall (Eden verse normal)/neo ishgardian
490 - crystarium
500 - Eden savage

#

there you go

fringe falcon
#

Cool thanks!

marble drift
#

no point really augmenting your deepshadow

remote lintel
#

yeah

#

but he wanted info

marble drift
#

fair

fringe falcon
#

Any guide or resource you guys have for efficiency on farming those?

marble drift
#

go from 460 deepshadow to 480 edencall or neo-ishguard

#

edencall is still currently under weekly lockout so no

#

deepshadow is "just do dungeons at 80"

remote lintel
#

I recommend unlocking the Eden raids and doing Eden verse normal for the 480 gear while also doing dailies/hunt trains to get allegory tome stones for the 490 gear

marble drift
#

neo-ishgard is crafted.

remote lintel
#

you can also buy the neo ishgardian on the mb

marble drift
#

if you want a piece that will last for a very long time. do some class research on your best in slot list

fringe falcon
#

Excellent! That sounds a lot like what i did at the end of Stormblood. Crafted gear/ hunt trains/dailies.

marble drift
#

and find a piece you won't be able to obtain for a while (like say Eden savage chest only available from the final fight)

remote lintel
#

don't forget to get your relic weapon

#

it's 485

marble drift
#

and then if your Neo-ishguard piece for your class is good. you can pentameld that with some effort

#

and it'll last you a VERY long time

fringe falcon
#

That sounds fun. Thanks a lot for the info :)

marble drift
#

also yeah go get your free 485 relic weapon

#

with 5 materia slots

fringe falcon
#

Do i need an ilvl for the relic?

marble drift
#

nope

remote lintel
#

the requirement is the SB alliance raids to unlock the quest

#

for the relic

marble drift
#

its a quest line and a solo duty

#

and then free weapon

#

weapons for your alts will cost 1000 poetics

fringe falcon
#

Relic weapons 485 for 1k poetics?

#

That sounds like heaven

remote lintel
#

for an alt

#

your first one is free

marble drift
#

this is just a chance encounter. its likely that next tier (when the weapon is outdated)

#

it won't be so easy to get your next relic stage

#

but first one is always pretty simple

remote lintel
#

it'll likely be a bigass grind again to upgrade it

marble drift
#

but currently the relic weapon in MOST cases

#

is your best available weapon until 5.3 or a E8S kill

fringe falcon
#

Awesome. Appreicate it guys. I'll go ahead and get started with that

jovial tundra
#

okay so

#

what do with tomestones of phantas

#

I get buy from aymark, upgrade at sheetatch

#

but is it armor only?

remote lintel
#

no

#

weapons too

marble drift
#

BUT the weapon is outdated

#

we were just talking about relic weapons

#

so go do that

remote lintel
#

objection

#

they look cool

jovial tundra
#

its only 470 gear, right?

marble drift
#

460 unless you upgrade

jovial tundra
#

crystarium is from the other one?

remote lintel
#

correct

marble drift
#

Allegory yes

jovial tundra
#

so it's all useless

#

I already have 480 crafted gear

remote lintel
#

sure

#

I mean the allegory isn't useless

#

but the phantas I guess

jovial tundra
#

that's what i mean]

#

phantas

marble drift
#

mainly yeah. check your servers price on Dried Ether

#

and if its...reasonable

oblique yew
#

Is the recommended gear in the character the right set?

marble drift
#

buy that with your phanta

#

what do you mean Tifa? the right set?

#

gear reccomendations generally just give you the most of your main stat

oblique yew
#

In terms of damage

marble drift
#

from pieces of gear in your inventory

#

yeah

proud willow
#

there are a few exceptions where it messes up, but you can generally trust the recommended gear button

remote lintel
#

none

oblique yew
#

Ok. Thanks

remote lintel
#

you're probably thinking of ARR

#

in which case

marble drift
#

Side quests don't affect story

remote lintel
#

it's the crystal tower

marble drift
#

they're largely flavor

remote lintel
#

no

#

there arent

marble drift
#

CT is not a side quest

remote lintel
#

yeah it is

marble drift
#

no thats

#

a side quest

remote lintel
#

blue side quests

marble drift
#

bluequest THATS not

proud willow
#

people still refer to blue quests as side quests

remote lintel
proud willow
#

side as in non-MSQ

marble drift
#

yeah well thats dumb

#

and CT is becoming mandatory soon anyway

remote lintel
#

I've answered the question

#

well

#

you can do the alliance raids to make the relic quest easier

twilit arch
#

i would do the ivalice raids for the relic quest

remote lintel
#

that's about it

twilit arch
#

but story wise, no

proud willow
#

the 8-man raids of Stormblood tie into a ShB dungeon in a minor way

twilit arch
#

in kugane

remote lintel
#

kugane

#

Kristin is the npc

#

Keiten

#

damn u autocorrect

proud willow
#

nope, Omega

#

Ivalice raids are the 24-man raids

remote lintel
#

8 man raids are separate from alliance

#

nope

twilit arch
#

no ivalice is just for the shb relic weapon

proud willow
#

^

twilit arch
#

its a free 485 weapon when you get to 80

#

which is why would strongly recommend doing it now

proud willow
#

enjoy!

remote lintel
#

also they're really fun

twilit arch
#

no

#

you need to complete shadowbringers first

remote lintel
#

you need to finish shv

#

shb

hoary storm
#

Did you do CT questline?

remote lintel
#

he did

willow cipher
#

Is there anyway to make plot camping a bit less brainnumbing? I'm camping for one and pressing buttons for 30+ minutes is driving me absolutely nuts

remote lintel
#

don't
